Character is now more than ever the quintessential attribute we desire to see in our politicians. And as Osarobo Osaghae is revealing himself as a true ‘Omotor’ ― a thorough bred Benin son, well brought up. He is a man who would recognize the place and role of our father, the Oba of Benin and the people of the land in Oredo Local Government Council of Edo State.
The entry of Osarobo is seen as seemingly a move that will shake the table. Here is one whose recent birthday celebration denoted who the man is, his personality and his values: Birthdays are usually noisy and celebratory.
But not for the star ― on the Block. For decades, our cherished Osaghae would prefer sharing his joy of the day with families in need and in hospitals. Fancy when unexpectedly your hospital bill is settled by a “good Samaritan”.
This is the attributes of he (Osarobo Osaghae) is well known for; our exemplary and humanitarian attitude he has shown, long before his indicating any political ambition. It’s customary for him to express empathy quietly, but meant to touch lives deeply.
No doubt, we can see in Osarobo, an exemplary character, which is others first; a people centered approach, one deeply rooted in a humane behaviour, and empathic behaviour that readily sees people feel needs and this he has been doing in Oredo, public and private hospitals on his Birthday.
As he steps forward with his aspiration to lead Oredo Local Government Council as it’s Chairman, his records offer a compelling picture ― that of one who will lead with emotional intelligence, compassion, and a personality filled with welfare, concern of the people in Oredo.
No one would doubt that in partnership with the SHINE Agenda of Edo State governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo,. widely celebrated for a passionate drive for service; it will be a partnership that works.
Osaghae’s passion in Oredo can be read, even from this distance, that of inclusivity and responsible leadership following his accolade and lifestyle.
With Osarobo Osaghae, hope when it’s said during campaigns, would be a forlorn hope, but his humility and empathy over the years would speak for him. For Oredo, the years of promise and hope and a habit of kindness may well be the foundation of a brighter and a more caring tomorrow.



APC has failed us, but are solely behind you sir
Politics is a leveller. If you can’t endure the heat, you have no business being in the kitchen.
Tell us your worries. Are you the one contesting the election? What do you know in politics.
This guy wants to try his luck. I have my worries and doubt. I reserve my comment.
I wish him well in his endeavors.
Time will tell actually
I like his charisma
